Lyrics:
We, we don’t have to worry bout nothing
‘Cause we got the fire, and we’re burning one hell of a something
They, they gonna see us from outer space, outer space
Light it up, like we’re the stars of the human race, human race

When the lights turned down, they don’t know what they heard
Strike the match, play it loud, giving love to the world
We’ll be raising our hands, shining up to the sky
‘Cause we got the fire, fire, fire, yeah we got the fire fire fire

We don’t wanna leave, no, we just gonna be right now
And what we see, is everybody’s on the floor
Acting crazy getting loco to the lights out
Music’s on, I’m waking up, we stop the vibe, and we bump it up
And it’s over now, we got the love, there’s no secret now, no secret now

When the lights turned down, they don’t know what they heard
Strike the match, play it loud, giving love to the world
We’ll be raising our hands, shining up to the sky
‘Cause we got the fire, fire, fire, yeah we got the fire fire fire

When the lights turned down, they don’t know what they heard
Strike the match, play it loud, giving love to the world

We gonna let it burn burn burn burn
Burn burn burn burn

We can light it up up up
So they can put it out out out
We can light it up up up
So they can put it out out out
We can light it up up up
So they can put it out out out
We can light it up up up
So they can put it out out out

When the lights turned down, they don’t know what they heard
Strike the match, play it loud, giving love to the world
We’ll be raising our hands, shining up to the sky
‘Cause we got the fire, fire, fire, yeah we got the fire fire fire

When the lights turned down, they don’t know what they heard
Strike the match, play it loud, giving love to the world
We’ll be raising our hands, shining up to the sky
‘Cause we got the fire, fire, fire, yeah we got the fire fire fire
